What is it called when the suns heat is trapped by carbon dioxide and water vapor in the atmosphere causing global warming?
greenhouse effect
What is it called when warming of the earth has trapped carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The Greenhouse Effect
What is the term or phrase for the warming caused by trapped carbon dioxide in your atmosphere?
Green house effect
What is the term or phrase for the warming caused by trapped carbon dioxide in our atmosphere?
green house effect
What is caused by heat being trapped in the atmosphere by gases like methane and dioxide?
Global Warming
When there are increasing amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere it is causing a what of the earth's atmosphere?
An enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
Which change in the atmosphere appears to contribute to global warming?
The increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide, is causing global warming.
What is the increase of co2 causing?
The increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is causing global warming and climate change.
What effect is a phenomenon in which carbon dioxide and other gases trap solar radiation in the atmosphere causing global air temperatures to rise?
Carbon dioxide and other "greenhouse" gases are trapped in the atmosphere due to a phenomenon referred to as global warming. Global warming refers to the constant and steady rise of the Earth's temperature.
Are fossile fuels harmful to the environment?
Because fossil fuels have carbon dioxide trapped inside them and when burned they release it all into the atmosphere where it adds to the greenhouse gases causing global warming.
Why should the amount of carbon in the atmosphere today be reduced?
The present levels of carbon dioxide dioxide in the atmosphere are causing global warming and climate change.
How does the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere affect climate?
Yes. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. If levels of it in the atmosphere are higher than normal, then they trap more heat. This is causing global warming, and the world warming is causing changes in climate.
